It has proven itself!
A neighbour and his friend went on a marvellous, all day trip in the mountains yesterday. Narrow, twisty roads, partially gravel, still snow on the ground paired with brilliant sun and 25 degrees (that's proper Celsius for you imperialists), in short: Awesome.
Until, of course, the friend picked up a 4 inch nail (I'll give you that one) with his unfortunately tubed Africa Twin front wheel with still an hour to go, and had to ride pillion home.
As it were, my neighbour saw my trailer just the other day, and asked to borrow it for a quick pickup. Which he could, of course.
Worked beautifully, trailed stably and quietly sans smergel and sort of proved the concept.
